The dams have resulted in the creation\u00a0of Brownlee, Oxbow, and Hells Canyon Reservoirs, which\u00a0have a combined storage capacity of more than 1.5 million\u00a0acre-feet and span about 90 miles of the Snake River. The\u00a0Snake River upstream of and through the HCC historically\u00a0has been impaired by water-quality issues related to excessive\u00a0contributions of nutrients, algae, sediment, and other pollutants.\u00a0In addition, historical data collected since the 1960s from the\u00a0Snake River and tributaries near the HCC have documented\u00a0high concentrations of mercury in fish tissue and sediment\u00a0(Harris and Beals, 2013). Data collected from more recent\u00a0investigations within the HCC continue to indicate elevated\u00a0concentrations of mercury and methylmercury in the water\u00a0column, bottom sediments, and biota (Clark and Maret, 1998;\u00a0Essig, 2010; Fosness and others, 2013). As a result, Brownlee\u00a0and Hells Canyon Reservoirs are listed as impaired for mercury\u00a0by the State of Idaho, and the Snake River from the Oregon and\u00a0Idaho border through the HCC downstream to the Oregon and\u00a0Washington border is listed as impaired for mercury by the\u00a0State of Oregon.", "description": "6 p.", "publisher": {"@type": "Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "author": [{"@type": "Person", "name": "Clark, Gregory M. gmclark@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Gregory M.", "familyName": "Clark", "email": "gmclark@usgs.gov", "affiliation": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "Idaho Water Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/idaho-water-science-center"}]}, {"@type": "Person", "name": "Naymik, Jesse", "givenName": "Jesse", "familyName": "Naymik", "affiliation": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "Idaho Power Company, P.O.
